Help reunite Maria & Danny, her dog

Donation protected
I arrived in Nepal in September of 2013.  My first few months of training were excrutiatingly hard.  When I moved to permanant site, in southwest Nepal, I was lonely and struggling.  My wonderful Nepali family gifted the one month-old Danny to me on January 11th, 2014.  He has been my constant companion, emotional support and best friend for the last 20 months.  

I was away from Danny during the tragic earthquake that shook Nepal on April 25th.  He and my family were fine, but Peace Corps is now rapidly pulling out of Nepal, due to health and safety concerns.  I do not know if and when I will be back, and so cannot comprehend leaving him in Nepal.

 I plan to ship Danny cargo, but need financial assistance for that expense, as well as for buying a travel crate(very expensive in Nepal) and paying other airline fees.  Being a volunteer for the last two years has not left me with a lot of extra cash, so any help with this would be appreciated.

I have to return to my permanant site for three days to pick up Danny and pack my belongings.  I will be back for only one day, before I leave, to make arrangements. 

Please give what you can.

Thank you,

Maria
